Ways to Impact a Life
At BRIDGE Hospice, we invite compassionate, dedicated individuals to become part of our extraordinary Volunteer Program. Volunteering with us is more than just an act of service—it’s an opportunity to bring comfort, hope, and companionship to those navigating some of life’s most tender moments. As a locally-owned hospice rooted in the Lubbock community, we are proud to offer a space where volunteers can truly make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
When you join our Volunteer Program, you become a vital member of a caring team that is deeply committed to supporting patients and their loved ones. Volunteers at BRIDGE Hospice provide a wide range of services, from offering companionship and reading aloud to assisting with errands or simply sitting in quiet presence. Every gesture, no matter how small, carries tremendous value and contributes to the emotional well-being of our patients and their families.
Our volunteers are the heart of our hospice, playing an essential role in enriching the lives of those we serve. Whether you’re offering a listening ear, sharing a warm smile, or helping create moments of peace and joy, your presence is a gift. In return, you’ll find that volunteering fosters personal growth, purpose, and a profound sense of fulfillment. Many of our volunteers share that their experiences have been life-changing, offering new perspectives and deeper connections within the community.
At BRIDGE Hospice, we understand that each volunteer brings unique strengths, backgrounds, and passions. That’s why we offer flexible opportunities tailored to your availability and interests. Whether you’re a retiree looking to give back, a student seeking a meaningful service experience, or simply someone with a heart for helping others, there is a place for you here. No prior experience is necessary—only a willingness to serve with empathy and kindness.
Beyond the day-to-day impact, our volunteers become cherished members of the BRIDGE Hospice family. You’ll be surrounded by a supportive and appreciative team that values your time, your talents, and your commitment. We provide training, ongoing support, and recognition to ensure that your volunteer journey is rewarding and impactful.
If you’re ready to make a real difference in the lives of others—and experience the joy that comes from touching hearts—we warmly invite you to join our Volunteer Program. Together, we can bring light, love, and lasting comfort to the people of Lubbock and its surrounding communities. Become part of something truly special—become a BRIDGE Hospice volunteer.

Volunteer Testimonials
Sharing Love
“To me, being a pet therapy handler is one of the most rewarding things on the planet. Sharing my love of animals and seeing how a person lights up as soon as they meet either Cricket or Spock is just amazing. Also, seeing how kids respond to Cricket after learning that she is totally deaf and still competing and working gives them hope, showing that it’s okay to be different and it doesn’t make you any less. Also, Spock, being a hairless cat, is always going to make someone smile once they make it past his lovable goblin appearance and see his big heart.”
– Mackenzy & Spock
Find Passion
“Volunteering brings an incredible sense of fulfillment. From running a food pantry for 17 years to supporting cancer patients with the Gildas Club, volunteering has always been my passion. As a newcomer to the Lubbock community, I searched for a cause close to my heart and found Bridge Hospice! Join in, make friends, and give back – it’s a fantastic experience!”
– Waverly
Offer Companionship
“I joined hospice care to offer companionship during challenging times. My grandparents, dear to me, faced worsening health, including dementia. Language and distance barriers prevented me from being there. No one should face such struggles alone. I aim to support hospice patients like my grandparents.”
– Nitin
Kindness & Love
“I feel blessed by God to pay forward the kindness and love my parents and father-in-law received from Hospice in their end days.”
– Deborah
Serving Others
“I chose to volunteer with Hospice care because I have the heart to serve others, and if I can bring some joy to one person, even for a minute, that would make the world less harsh.”
– Victoria
Give Back to Lubbock
“My heart led me to volunteer with hospice because it reminds me of my grandparents and father, who benefited from the love and care that the volunteers provided. I wanted to be able to give back to others in their time of need.”
